Who’s at Fault?
The Manufacturer
If a pharmaceutical company sold a defective medication knowingly, or they rushed the product to the market without proper testing, they are liable for injuries caused by the dangerous drug.
The Pharmacy
In some cases, pharmacies give people the wrong medicine or wrong dosage. These type of medication errors can cause serious, unnecessary harm to customers.
The Doctor
If a doctor prescribes medicine without proper reason, or prescribes the wrong medicine, it’s considered medical malpractice. This can cause serious injuries.
Common Recoverable Damages
Medical Expenses
Current and future medical expenses can stack up quickly in medicine error injury cases. You should not have to pay those bills if another party is responsible for your injuries.
Loss of Income
Many serious drug-related injuries prevent people from returning to work. Those responsible for your injury will have to pay back those lost wages.
Pain & Suffering
Many drug injuries cause long-term side effects, sometimes lifelong. We can’t undo any suffering you’ve gone through, but our legal team will work to make sure you’re properly compensated for it.
Diminished Quality of Life
When these injuries are chronic or permanent, they can greatly reduce your quality of life. If this happened to you, you deserve compensation, and our attorneys will fight to earn it for you.
FAQs on Dangerous Drugs & Medication Errors

Many medications have been deemed dangerous. Some of the dangerous drugs recalled include: Actos, Avandia, Darvocet, Digitek, Fosamax, Ketek, Metoclopramide (Reglan), Pradaxa, Trasylol, Yaz, and Yasmin. These are just a few of the commonly prescribed drugs that have been deemed dangerous.
How much can I get from my dangerous drug case?
Every case is different. There’s no easy formula for determining the monetary value of each case. Compensation for an injury caused by a dangerous drug can include recovery for medical bill payments, treatment costs, income loss resulting from time spent recovering from injuries, and pain and suffering. Our free case evaluations can help determine the expected worth of your drug injury case.
How much does it cost to hire a lawyer for drug or medication error injuries?
You don’t pay any legal fees until we win or settle your injury case. We review your case for free, and there is no deposit or advance fee required. When a settlement or verdict is reached, then our legal fee is calculated at a percentage (usually one-third) of the total amount awarded. This is called a contingent fee agreement, which is how most personal injury lawyers are paid. Call our legal team for a free case evaluation.
